We’re just weeks away from WrestleMania 33, but Jim Ross is already thinking ahead to what match could headline next year’s event. In his latest blog, JR suggests that Brock Lesnar capture the Universal Championship from Goldberg and hold the title for an entire year before defending against Roman Reigns. The two squared off in the main event of WrestleMania 31 and Ross thinks that’s the direction WWE is headed.
“What would you think about Brock Lesnar defending the Universal Title against Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania in NOLA in 2018? That seems to be the direction,” he said.” I like it as it would give Lesnar a one year run as champ which also would necessitate Lesnar working a few more dates on his last year of his current contract. Seems logical to me. Lesnar could defend the title monthly, if required, quite easily on an enhanced albeit manageable schedule.”
JR also commented on the WWE release of his fellow Oklahoman, Jack Swagger.
“The former Oklahoma Sooner All American Wrestler won’t have any issues getting booked. Seems like it would be strategic for Impact Wrestling would jump on the former WWE Champion when he’s legally able to appear on their TV. Swagger would also be a great addition to the NJPW roster or perhaps even ROH. I wish the former Sooner nothing but the best.”
